1As Milton is a long-term investor and does not intend disposing of its long term equity investment portfolio the NTA before tax excludes a provision for tax on unrealised capital gains that may arise should the equity investment portfolio be disposed

MILTON is predominantly a long term investor in companies and trusts that are listed on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX).

The composition of the equity portfolio is not aligned with any stock exchange index. It reflects the emphasis Milton has always placed on investing in well managed companies that have a profitable history and are expected to grow dividends over time.

Milton has a long track record of paying fully franked dividends, which are predominantly funded by the dividends received from its equity investment portfolio.

Milton's efficient internal management structure aligns interests with shareholders and results in an MER of 14 basis points.

TPR combines the change in value of the NTA per share with the dividends paid in the period.

The below TPR & TSR calculations do not take into account franking credits which may be of benefit to certain shareholders.
